WWE’s Mattel Action Figures Achieve Huge Milestone Figure

WWE have revealed a huge milestone achievement for the Mattel action figure line on their official website, and this is certainly something to be proud of.

According to the NPD Group, the Mattel line of WWE action figures were the number one selling action figure line in the United States of America last year, surpassing all other action figure sales, including those of major entertainment brands and blockbuster films.

Here is what WWE had to say via their website:

“WWE’s year-round content and unprecedented fan engagement play a key role in the success of all lines of business, including our No. 1 action figure,” said Casey Collins, WWE Executive Vice President, Consumer Products. “With family-friendly entertainment, a diverse portfolio of innovative toys and an extensive roster of larger-than-life Superstars, our passionate fans can engage with WWE in more ways than any other entertainment brand.”

As WWE’s global master toy licensor since 2009, Mattel’s WWE Basic Action Figure Series is the longest-running continuous action figure assortment in history. With more than 400 unique WWE Superstars in the collection, the series celebrates the history of WWE, spanning from the Legends of the 1980s to the Superstars of today.

“WWE fans, both kids and collectors, are among the most loyal and passionate of any property. When you combine that passion with an amazing roster of Superstars, it’s a magic formula for action figures,” said Jason Horowitz, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Licensed Properties at Mattel. “We offer fans product with continual freshness and authenticity, and in 2018 our design team is raising the bar with new techniques to ensure our action figures are even more like their real-life Superstars.”
